Surgeons are highly paid, but in the grand scheme of things very few of them make $1m+/year. And the ones who do so generally do not do so easily. Neurosurgeons and orthopedic surgeons are generally the highest paid of all doctors, but both rarely crack seven figures, and they work horrendous hours in many cases. And becoming a neurosurgeon is simply beyond the ability of most medical students anyway. Perhaps if you set up a plastic surgery shop in Beverly Hills and hired other doctors under you.
